September 11, 2001 began beneath an almost unbelievably beautiful blue sky. Then, in a matter of minutes, the world changed forever. Twenty-five years later, for people of faith, 9/11 raises one of the most difficult questions human beings can ask. Where was God? Perhaps beneath that question lies an even more difficult one. If God is all-powerful and all-loving, why did He allow 9/11 to happen in the first place? Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then hear from Sr. Gaudia and Sr. Emanuela of the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy, St. Faustina’s religious community, who reflect on the themes of suffering, heroism, and the message of Divine Mercy.
Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, “Living Divine Mercy,” airing on EWTN every Thursday at 10 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind’s last hope of salvation! Ep. 261: 25th Anniversary of 9/11

I wish the members of the St. Nicholas church, Catholic or Orthodox, building that was destroyed by the towers’ destruction were rebuilt in that style. We need more St. Nicholas parishes in a country that makes him the center of Christmas, which would sound like it not about Christ, but it would be because he would be a representative of Christ and not some elf or human adopted by elves to do something almost unrelated to the reason for the season, except parents buy gifts for their kids like the Wise Men did for Jesus.
Churches called (The) Nativity (of Christ) would also be good titles for that reason. We have a parish with the latter title.
God was in the towers with the ones trapped and ready to accept death
Where can I find the book the Sister wrote for nurses? I’m a Paramedic, but would love to have it. I pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet every time I lose a patient. I want to help them in every way I can.
I visited Ground Zero in seventh grade I think two years after 9/11, and I remember the cross. I don’t remember it being left standing, I think I thought someone had put it there. What a beautiful episode.
Thistle flowers represented instead of prayers and representatives for the pass away souls from Vietnam. That's prevent violence and hatred revenge from by unweaponize from the hearts.

I was watching a documentary and it was just too sad, painful… I'm here for mercy and to offer up my suffering for those souls who died.
Yes , we understand his permissive will but not why there is so much suffering and for some unbelievable suffering . The only thing I know is to offer all trials up for souls in purgatory
Thank you Fr Chris! I got emotional listening to Nurse Marie on praying The Divine Mercy Chaplet. I prayed this everyday for my ex-husband up until he passed away. He wasn't practicing Catholicism but was ready to pray. Jesus I trust in you 🙏. Thank you for all the Marian priests and brothers. I have been listening since COVID occurred
Thank you for putting this together to show a somber and not hate filled side of that day – you mentioned that we should treat those who did this with the correct attitude (we should pray for our enemies). 1️⃣🤴🏽❣️✝️🩸❣️🕊️⛲
Father Mychal – Victim #1 – that is NOT an interesting coincidence! 🙇🏼🙇🏾♂️
Jesus, Our Lord, was there!!! ✝️🩸
Is there a significance with the number 4,233? I think the Lord said that was the actual number of deaths because of the four planes. Just wonderin' 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏻♀️
This shows you how evil Islam is 👹
Very powerful episode thank you Father Chris 🙏
I was caring for my mother when the attack came on the TV. It was such a shock, my mother, the prayer warrior and I said a rosary right away.🙏 Praying for all the victims at the time and those that suffered throughout the years from the after affects.🙏🙏🙏
My brother's whole compay was at a meeting the day before the Trade Towers were hit. His whole company considered this was a close call and donated much money and prayers to the survivors.🙏🙏🙏
Jesus, I trust in You. 🙏❤️
😭❤️🤍💙🙏
Another banger
What is scary is to see that after all this New Yorkers have voted for a socialist. I wonder if they understand what they have done.
May the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace!🙏🙏🙏
powerful show — thanks so much
Beautiful heartfelt episode. Thank you Father Chris. May God rest all the souls affected by 9-11.
This should be a day of meditation recollection on what happened to our country. I just looked up our hearts to God this thing and ask for his blessings, grace, strength to do His will, which is mercy and love.
What an absolute beautiful tribute Father Chris and EWTN❤❤❤
🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
Thank you Fr Chris 🙏🏻✝️🙏🏻 God bless you and protect you. 🙏🏻 God bless America 🙏🏻🇺🇸🙏🏻
It was 25 years ago…I have eerie memory of the day. Enough has been said in other comments. Prayers for EVERYONE Impacted; EXCEPT for the COWARDS who planned and were successful in carrying out their Satanic plan.
AMEN Sister!!!
What a powerful inspiring message for today and always. Thank you all 🥹✝️
25 years later and now we know 911 wasn't committed by just a bunch of Muslims with box cutters. This video pushes every main stream narrative lie about what happened that day.
Eternal Rest be granted unto them and may the Perpetual light shine ✨️ brightly upon thier souls forever with our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen🕯✝️🙏🌹👮♂️👣🇺🇸👣👩🚒🌹🙏🕯🕊
Amen thank you Father Chris God bless you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ Amen 🙏🙏🙏
Beautiful message, Fr, but no airplane hit the Pentagon. If you don't believe me, look it up. Try to find one single picture of an airplane or airplane debris around the Pentagon. The Pentagon was an inside job
Amen thank you heavenly Father God and thank you Devin Mercy God bless you all your beautiful teachings prayers worship music and everyone in the mighty name of Jesus Christ Amen 🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏾 for all first responders, and victims of 911 those who've died and those who survived some with horrible disability to this very day and for all the families & spouses of deceased. 🙏🏾🙏🏻🙏🏽
